Metro Detroit Haitian community blasts Trump over false claims

Members of the Metro Detroit Haitian community condemned false claims, perpetuated by Donald Trump and Republican nominee JD Vance, that Haitian immigrants engage in pet-eating. These baseless accusations have put lives in danger and perpetuate harmful stereotypes. Haitian American leaders like Lise-Pauline Barnett and Rilck Noel expressed their hurt and called for an end to the attacks, emphasizing the hardworking nature of Haitian immigrants striving for the American Dream. Despite these claims being debunked, Trump campaign representatives continue to shift the narrative towards broader immigration issues.
